DETROIT—Relief pitcher Yohan Ramírez committed two consecutive errors in the ninth inning Sunday, July 14, paving the way for the Detroit Tigers to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 4–3 for their second straight comeback win over the National League West leaders.

Ramírez made a wide throw to third base on Wenceel Pérez’s sacrifice bunt, allowing Justyn-Henry Malloy to score the second run of the inning for the victory. The right-hander failed to field Ryan Vilade’s sacrifice bunt in the previous at-bat, advancing Malloy to second.
